While it may not be feasible for all models, most Honda cars made after 2001 can have their radio codes recovered on their own. This is what you will have to do:
Look up the serial number on your radio. Usually, a label on the back of the radio itself has this information. Certain Honda cars manufactured after 2001 have a display that you can use to get the serial number if you are unable to access the radio directly. For further information on how to accomplish this for your model of automobile, go to the manual.
Visit the official Honda radio code website at [Honda radio code website] when you have the radio serial number.
To get your special radio code, enter the serial number of your radio and adhere to the on-screen directions.
When they first started using radio codes, the internet wasn’t like it is today. You couldn’t just look up any bit of information instantly. Car designs were different too—radios weren’t built into the dashboard with climate controls and all that. Instead, they were just a single or double DIN slot. Back then, radio theft was a much bigger problem.
Today, it’s less likely that a thief would take the time to note the vehicle’s VIN number to keep track of a stolen radio. Most thieves want to get in and out of a vehicle as quickly as possible, grabbing whatever they can quickly.
So, radio codes made sense in the past when radios were easier to steal and information wasn’t as accessible. Now, car designs and the availability of information have changed the situation.
